We introduce a novel efficient and effective conjugate gradient approach for large-scale unconstrained optimization problems. The primary goal is to improve the conjugate gradient method's search direction in order to propose a new, more active method based on the modified vectorv_k^\ast, which is dependent on the step size of Barzilai and Borwein. The suggested algorithm features the following traits: (i) The ability to achieve global convergence; (ii) numerical results for large-scale functions show that the proposed algorithm is superior to other comparable optimization methods according to the number of iterations (NI) and the number of functions evaluated (NF); and (iv) training neural networks is done to improve their performance.

Following the standard methods proposed by Polak-Ribiere-Polyak (P-R), in this work we introduce two new non-linear conjugate gradient methods for solving unconstraint optimization problem, our new methods based on P-R. Standard method (P-R) have performance well in numerical result but does not satisfy global convergency condition. In this paper we modified double attractive and powerful parameters that have better performance and good numerical result than P-R method, also each of our robust method can satisfies the descent condition and global convergency condition by using wolf condition. More over the second method modified by logistic mapping form, the main novelty is their numerical results and demonstrate performance well with compare to a standard method.

An unexpected limitation of blood supply to the brain and heart causes the majority of strokes. Stroke severity can be reduced by being aware of the many stroke warning signs in advance. A stroke may result if the flow of blood to a portion of the brain stops suddenly. In this research, we present a strategy for predicting the early start of stroke disease by using Logistic Regression (LR) algorithms. To improve the performance of the model, preprocessing techniques including SMOTE, feature selection and outlier handling were applied to the dataset. This method helped in achieving a balance of class distribution, identifying and removing unimportant features and handling outliers. with the existence of increased blood pressure, body mass, heart conditions, average blood glucose levels, smoking status, prior stroke, and age. Impairment occurs as the brain's neurons gradually die, depending on which area of the brain is affected by the reduced blood supply. Early diagnosis of symptoms can be extremely helpful in predicting stroke and supporting a healthy lifestyle. Furthermore, we performed an experiment using logistic regression (LR) and compared it to a number of other studies that used the same machine learning model, which is logistic regression (LR), and the same dataset. The results showed that our method successfully achieved the highest F1 score and area under curve (AUC) score, which can be a successful tool for stroke disease prediction with an accuracy of 86% compared to the other five studies in the same field. The predictive model for stroke has prospective applications, and as a result, it is still significant for academics and practitioners in the fields of medicine and health sciences.

The Quasi-Newton (QN) method is a widely used stationary iterative method for solving unconstrained optimization problems. One particular method within the Quasi-Newton family is the Symmetric Rank-One (SR1) method. In this research, we propose a new variant of the Quasi-Newton SR1 method that utilizes the Barzilai-Borwein step size. Our analysis demonstrates that the updated matrix resulting from the proposed method is both symmetric and positive definite. Additionally, our numerical experiments show that the proposed SR1 method, when combined with the PCG method, is effective in solving unconstrained optimization problems, as evidenced by its low number of iterations and function evaluations. Furthermore, we demonstrate that our proposed SR1 method is more efficient in solving large-scale problems with a varying number of variables compared to the original method. The numerical results of applying the new SR1 method to neural network problems also reveal its effectiveness.

The major stationary iterative method used to solve nonlinear optimization problems is the quasi-Newton (QN) method. Symmetric Rank-One (SR1) is a method in the quasi-Newton family. This algorithm converges towards the true Hessian fast and has computational advantages for sparse or partially separable problems [1]. Thus, investigating the efficiency of the SR1 algorithm is significant. It's possible that the matrix generated by SR1 update won't always be positive. The denominator may also vanish or become zero. To overcome the drawbacks of the SR1 method, resulting in better performance than the standard SR1 method, in this work, we derive a new vector 𝑦𝑦𝑘𝑘∗ depending on the Barzilai-Borwein step size to obtain a new SR1 method. Then using this updating formula with preconditioning conjugate gradient (PCG) method is presented. With the aid of inexact line search procedure by strong Wolfe conditions, the new SR1 method is proposed and its performance is evaluated in comparison to the conventional SR1 method. It is proven that the updated matrix of the new SR1 method, 𝐻𝐻𝑘𝑘+1𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛, is symmetric matrix and positive definite matrix, given 𝐻𝐻𝑘𝑘 is initialized to identity matrix. In this study, the proposed method solved 13 problems effectively in terms of the number of iterations (NI) and the number of function evaluations (NF). Regarding NF, the new SR1 method also outperformed the classic SR1 method. The proposed method is shown to be more efficient in solving relatively large-scale problems (5,000 variables) compared to the original method. From the numerical results, the proposed method turned out to be significantly faster, effective and suitable for solving large dimension nonlinear equations

In this study, a new self-scaling variable metric (VM)-updating method for solving nonlinear unconstrained optimization problems is presented. The general strategy of (New VM-updating) is to propose a new quasi-newton condition used for update the usual DFP Hessian to a number of times in a way to be specified in some iteration with PCG method to improve the performance of the Hessian approximation.
